Through which API component does Dynatrace send custom deployment events?

The Deployment API is the appropriate component through which Dynatrace sends custom deployment events. This API is specifically designed to manage and report deployment events, allowing users to create, update, and delete deployment entries in their Dynatrace environment.

Using the Deployment API, organizations can effectively track changes in their application environments by linking specific deployments to their performance metrics. By doing so, teams can gain insights into how a deployment impacts application performance, leading to quicker identification of issues and improved incident response times.

While other APIs serve distinct purposes within Dynatrace, such as collecting monitoring data or handling event management more generally, the Deployment API's specialized focus makes it the most suitable choice for sending custom deployment events.
